If you have the 12 inch links, that can clunk when the contact the LCAs. Should be 10 inch.

Just saying it one more time.

The nuts for the links are self locking and are a task to remove by hand but it can be done. You would need a breaker bar longer than 2 ft to get then to break lose.
What is also nice about the MOOG part is the nut on the stud. There is a lot more material there to use your wrench to hold it verses the OEM part.
